Oh hello, hello, my dear God
That's when the phone rings and I jump
Put my heart on the shelf again
It's easy when you play it cool
And as I grab the phone, I pray
It must be him , it must be him
It must be him , it must be him
That's when the phone rings
Oh hello, hello, my dear God
Play the field, have a lot of fun
After a while I'm myself again
I'll find somebody else someday
Let it please be him, oh dear God
I'm not a puppet on a string
And once again I start to pray
It must be him but it's not him
It must be him but it's not him
It must be him, it must be him
Who cares, let him stay away
And then I die, again I die
Or I shall die, or I shall die
Let it please be him, oh dear God
Let it please be him, oh dear God
Or I shall die, or I shall die
And then I die, that's when I die
I tell myself, don't be a chump
I pick the pieces off the floor
You'll never hurt me anymore
